About this map

Flatrock River and the Little Flatrock River converge near the community of Milroy, shaping a landscape defined by waterway forks and early transportation routes. The New York Central railroad runs north-to-south through the center of the sheet, connecting settlements like Williamstown and Sandusky. This mid-century survey reveals a rural economy heavily punctuated by numerous Gas Wells, indicating the region's historical energy production. Local heritage is preserved in the detailed marking of rural burying grounds, such as Overleese Cem and McLaughlin Cem, alongside social landmarks like the Drive-in Theater near Sandusky. The presence of Springhill Ch and the Twp Sch near Kingston highlights the community hubs that served the surrounding townships during this era.
